Thanks for the reply. Netgear and Sprint tech help was very tech-less and no help- like you said, scripted responses. They say my unit should be replaced, but, like you, I think it is a software issue since several people have reported this problem. I did a settings reset, but it did nothing. I will try a facory reset next, and hopefully I can get a second IP to hold. Thanks

finally found a smart person online that found the Netgear GUI: http://[your IP address for your 6100d]/adv_index.asp. This is the GUI you need to use for port forwarding- and many other functions the Sprint GUI doesn't have or doesn't work... After one replacement RMA with the same lame result, countless faux "techs" ridiculous non support (Netgear and Sprint), this actually works. I put in my second IP address for port forwarding and it took without a hitch. Here is the smart guy's full article link: http://s.co.tt/2014/08/26/netgear-lg-6100d-sprint-lte-gateway-advanced-configuration/
cheers!
